Dalai Lama's White House visit about appearances

WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama plans a muted meeting with the Dalai Lama on Thursday in deference to Chinese anger that he is welcoming the exiled Tibetan spiritual leader into the White House at all.

Chinese officials will be watching closely to see how great a stage Obama offers to his fellow Nobel Peace Prize laureate. The Chinese want to know: How long will the meeting last? Will the first lady attend? Will the White House put out a written statement or answer questions about the visit at daily press briefings? Will cameras be allowed to film any part of the encounter?

China's feelings matter because the Obama administration needs Beijing's help to confront nuclear standoffs in Iran and North Korea, to fight climate change and to boost the world's economy.

With China in mind, the White House appears to be opting for a low-key meeting. There is unlikely to be a joint public appearance or photo opportunity before reporters.

Let me also post this, being it's been a problem for some. If your expecting me or my posts to be Religious and under your doctrines of what you may think is of God. Please don't add me. First off, I am not Religious. Religion bores me. I have Jesus Christ. I read His Word more than you will ever know. I also take the time to listen to what His Holy Spirit has to say. If your doctrines are about Judging other Christians instead of reaching out to the lost. You may not want to add me. That is not what Christ came and died for. Let alone Raised from the dead for. Those whom the Son Sets Free are Free Indeed!
